At the moment, CBS is reporting a total of "37 Shot, 2 Stabbed, 7 Dead," while pointing out that 13 of the victims were Chicago Public School students. Fox News Chicago noticed-in a moment of divine correlation-that Grand Theft Auto advertisements appear on CTA buses and train stations. More »

This is not an April Fool's Joke. Neither is Fox News. Yet both strangely seem like one. Everyday of the year. More »

It's what I consider the Bestest Picture of the Year, therefore meaning, yes, it's mandatory viewing lest Witz need to take you outside. But what about that very weird-sounding game based upon the movie that was floating around the internet last week? It sounded weird for a reason. It doesn't exist. More »

Having had the chance to sit down with BioWare's Ray Muzyka at DICE last night, he asked why it had been journalists and publishers who had come to Mass Effect's defence after it was attacked on Fox, and not the game's creators themselves. Muzyka's response? That they were happy to let the "community" be the first to come to their defence. And aside from a short statement issued to the New York Times, that's exactly what they did. Let others come to their own game's defence. Which doesn't sit well with Croal:
In order to sit at the grown-ups table, culturally speaking, developers are going to have to act like adults. And that means not letting other people do their fighting for them.
Little harsh, perhaps, but also largely on the money. More »

That's the question we ask ourselves after watching this spoof of Geoff Keighley's appearance on FOX News. While the skit itself is alright, it was the reporter's opening monologue that made the clip post-worthy. So without giving anything away, we'll just say that, damn, we really wish we'd played the publicized version of Mass Effect. Because it sounds really freakin' hot. More »

To bring everyone up to speed: Fox News made erroneous claims about Mass Effect. Game journalist and one-time Kotaku guest editor Geoff Keighley tried to clear the air, but the network's panel and dime store Freud shrink Cooper Lawrence wouldn't listen. The internet got angry and spammed her book's Amazon.com and Barnes&Noble listings. Amazon.com has since turned off the comments and erased user added images for her book's page. More »

Or Tries To]]> Click to viewHaving had the thrill of appearing live on Fox News to try and clear the waters over a vast video game misrepresentation, I have to say I feel for Geoff Keighley. In the first two minutes the anchor says that Mass Effect has full nudity and sex and a psychologist "expert" talks about how statistics show that games are played by young boys and that Mass Effect is all about objectifying women. Oh wait, you can play as a woman too, Keighley points out and the full-on nudity? About half a boob for 30 seconds of a 30 hour game. More »

The more rumors surfaced that this was not the case at all, but nothing was solidly confirmed until now. Our fearless leader took the time from his vacation and possibly a death threat from his wife to send us this missive he received from a Fox representative. More »

A Fox News segment on Brain Age I don't really think much of Brain Age, but one thing's for sure... with all the negative publicity being garnered by anchorman idiots concerning Hot Coffee and the like lately, it sure is nice that at least one game out there seems to charm the pants off of everyone who meets it.

Spoofing a casting call for the show—sorry, no casting couch, furry fans—the seven minute promo introduces you to the featured pinatas on the show, as well as the creepy psychology of being disemboweled by children with baseball bats and a dash of self-cannibalism. It's an unsettling commercial within a commercial. More »

Penny Arcade's latest comic is about Fox news and their ability to squeeze controversy out of even the most innocuous of events. This time around Fox targeted the Playstation Portable and its ability to capture the wild porn that, apparently, is floating around us everyday in the air. Even better, the Penny Arcade comic was inspired by our very own Eliza's take on the whole issue. We await a big fat royalty check Tycho. Brian Crecente More »
